	I have 3 page footers that where the lowest field is at Y-position 11.408. And my page header reached until 7.5. However, I only want to show 1 page footer. Does this make any difference? And if so, is there any alternative, apart from putting say 2 page footers in a sub report and conditionally suppress it like that?

	how many invoices are you printing at once? Fliop through eachof the pages and make sure that each invoice is gettng the corerct ABC value for that page. did you supress the report header and footer to make sure that they do not make your first and last pages longer than the page size? do you have any detail sections or group headers and footers that are unsuppressed? just do a flat suppression of each of the A B and C footers. then one at a time unsupress them (no conditions) and resupres the prior one (only have one show at a time) and see if any of these 'break' your report regardless of suppression.

	Report header and footer are suppressed. The detail section is unsuppressed, because this holds the invoice lines. I guess the easiest option now, is to create 3 subreports, and put these in my page footers. A little bit more work and a small work around, but it will work though. Another thing learned, thanks

	FYI-you can also re-use your current efforts by conditionally suppressing the fields instead of the whole section. It also may show you where the issue was with the other approach. Select all the fields in one footer and select properties and conditinoally suppress them using the @formula<>'A' process. repeat for B and C sections move allt he fields onto one footer overlaying each other.

	I ended up doing something similar. When I created the 3 subreports and placed them in the page footers, they only showed the first line. So I ended up creating 1 page footer, big enough, and placed the 3 subreports on top of each other. I conditionally suppressed them, so only the correct one shows
